Game Ideas - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
Hope this is the right area - I've been involved with Android development since it first came out all those years ago, i've worked on many games for myself but now wanted to get some quality games released.
I'm currently working on one as a Uni project, but wanted to what your thoughts where for a good game, do you think there is a market for a game like this on android: http://www.airconflicts.net/ ?
Any thoughts appreciated!
Thanks.

New user looking for hope

Just got a Sony S Tab yesterday and was wondering, is there any hope for rooting this superb device?
I have looked around and it seems like know one has managed this yet. My main reason would be to change build prop so that i would be able to play games like 9mm, modern combat 3 and tintin.
So, have i bought a great tab just to play games like angry birds and the like.
Any advise would be great.
Cheers,
David
Root will come eventually.You've just got to be patient
I'm also really hoping the tablet s gets rooted. There's a bounty going in the developer thread for almost $1000 for anyone who can figure out how to do it, so hopefully that'll entice someone to do it.
As for running those incompatible games we're pretty stuck for now. I honestly think everyone should be emailing gameloft asking for them to just fix it so we can buy their stuff. Surely they'd do something if they thought the demand was high enough... but then again who knows lol
Either way, we're going to have to be patient and wait for root. Hopefully someone else may know a method to make the games work now so that's worth researching tho
Patients is my middle name....NOT. I WANT IT NOW.Sorry, i got carried away. Gameloft could make alot more money if they expanded their coverage on different devices. With all that loveliness of a big screen, 1gb ram, Tegra2 and super resolution you would think they would have the knowledge to integrate their games.
Anyways, enough of my ranting, i wish i was technically minded, i would take the money and make this a incredible experience for all.
D.
My guess is if you could force it to load, they'd work just fine.. being tegra2 and all. I emailed them requesting their support of the tablet, listing in-compatible games.
Also questioned as to why you can get N.O.V.A. 2 off their website as a demo with ingame purchase of the full game, that works just fine, yet it is "incompatible" on the android market. To this they said "we have no information specific to the title you are inquiring about".
Got the general, allthough there are no set plans, yadayada, developers working hard, blah, your suggestions are forwarded to our dev team.
etc!
So yeah I agree, shout loud enough and we'll be heard.
Download N64oid and play Mario 64 ;]
I think Tin Tin works. I think i played it on my tablet.
If TinTin works then I am really confused. On the Marketplace it does not show up.
Check this out! Sony Tablet S has been successfully rooted
I know, if this baby gets rooted then it will make my day
Root's finally arrived guys! Just check over at the development forums.
Now that i have root would anyone have a suitable build prop to "trick" marketplace so that i may install my gameloft games?
Cheers, happy days, eh.
David
Quick heads up. Changed build prop and games now show up in marketplace and install and run perfect
Model=A500
device=acer
Name=picasso_generic1
device=picasso
Ps. Thats it,all my internal memory is run dry, I have a 32gb sd card just sitting their but games dont see the sd card because Sony set this up all wrong.

[Q] battleheart

According to the reviews this game hasnt been updated for a long time unlike its ios version (with 2 new char) and some sources say that the dev of this game abandoned android therefor theres a posibility for no updates to come. Question is, is this game still worth buying even without the update?
Havent played this game before and it looks good with great reviews so cant really decide.
Any suggestions? Thank you in advance.
Broken on ICS, apparently.
It's a really fun game, though.
oh... So when the ics update comes i might not be able to play with it until the dev update it...

Best ROM for Gaming on Touchpad

Hi guys,
I'm trying to flash android on my touchpad for my kids can play games. I'm just trying to figure out what'll be the best ROM to put onto the touchpad in order for gaming for my kids? I've read through the posts a little bit but theres quite a bit so I was wondering if you guys had any ideas. It'll also be nice if it had minimal bugs and I could use it as a daily driver.
Also: Are there any updated guides for this out? I'm sure I can follow the old one and figure it out from there, but I figured it never hurts to ask.
Thanks

I would just go with stock cyanogen. There is no gaming roms lol. I am running cyano nightly and its very stable. You can over clock it too.
Go check out rev kyle on YouTube and he will give you step by step directions bud. . Don't forget to hit thanks if I was helpful. Good luck and I hope your kids get as much joy out of your touchpad as I do!

Depending on the games you may need to spoof another device. Most of the kid games work well though. My 2 and 5 year olds like playing on my touchpad. In fact I'm getting another one for them soon.

To those running CM9, do gameloft/glu games work? I used to get FC all the time on CN several months ago.
I got a GNex so I haven't been up to date on TP development for a while now
A lot of gameloft games work, I run Asphalt 6, Modern Combat 3, Dungeon Hunters 3, and other high end games like Mass Effect Infiltrator and such with no problems. Sometimes you'd need specific versions for some other games (so those have to be side-loaded into your device) but most work. Don't know about glu games, myself.
CM9 nightlies are the best. I flash the latest nightly, change the build.prop to spoof a SGH-T989, and I'm set for everything I need.

more bluetooth games

So you gave your kid your old phone and would like to play a head to head game together?
But the phone is not activated (so no data) and you are in the car (so no wifi).
Bluetooth becomes your only option.
But since I haven’t been able to find much yet (including searches here on xda), I’ll post what I have found and hope that you can post what you’ve found.
*Let's keep wifi games for a different thread; this is just for Bluetooth (or any other means of direct communication with 2 non-activated phones).
And for any parents, this also allows brother and sister to play against each other.
That way they can fight with their phones, not with their fists! ☺
-Slot car racing (my favorite so far) *it has a 3d in car-view that is great!

It also has a build your own track option.
-Umz mini Games (my daughter likes the balloon pop one)

-Bluetooth games (these are poor quality but do provide competition)

-This is a great one if you like ping pong. No matter what I do I can not beat my son.

cool. wonder if theres a tweak out there or if someone could make a mod of sorts to have Bluetooth emulate wifi for wireless play like this? would enable more games id think. probably much easier said than done though.
There's also POU. Various PvP games playable via bluetooth.
Umz Mini Games - THANKS

Well there will be a major update coming near the end of this month, give or take so I hope you keep it and continue to enjoy!

I'd recommend Blobby Volleyball - very popular.
Pou is also a very good one, already been recommended.
That's awesome. Please post here when the update is available!
UPDATE Out!
OK I've just posted the update to the market, it should be available now.
I've made major changes to the UI and game engine so I had to remove alot to rebuild.
Give me your opinion and let me know what you want to see back in the game, or new in the game for the next update in 2 ish months :good:
Hello @UmzGames:
Nice games. Do you consider to publish them on fdroid as well?

What would that be? Another platform? I've posted it to Google Play and Amazon so far.
UmzGames, thanks for the update. Love the new menu and other features, and still love playing those games with my daughter.
I've added another bluetooth game to the OP.
Please keep looking for other great bluetooth games!

[Q] Copying a Rom to put on an identical device

I recently bought my first android Streaming box - with a RK3288 processor. I am very much impressed and have been playing around with it for days and days. I think I finally have it to where I want it. My problem is I am buying another box for my parents and would like to just copy exactly what I have to the new box.
How do I do this? I have tried a couple apps from the Google Store and they don't yet support the RK3288 processor as it's pretty new and I couldn't figure out how to use Titanium Backup. Any detailed help would be amazing - and my parents would thank you too! Happy Holidays in Advance.
Joe
